You can break a line whenever you have an open parenthesis (, brace { or
bracket [
eg
lst = [
'stuff',
'morestuff'
]
myDict = {
'a' : 1,
'b' : 2
}
callOfFunctionWithVeryManyArguments('arg1', 'arg2',
'arg3', 'arg4')
You can explicitly continue a line by ending it with a \
x = a + \
b
You can include line breaks inside triple-quoted strings:
s = '''Here is some text
that spans two lines'''
